description Delicious in Dungeon Overview
When young adventurer Laios and his company are attacked and soundly thrashed by a dragon deep in a dungeon, the party loses all its money and provisions...and a member!

help Delicious in Dungeon FAQ
Why does Laios's party eat dungeon monsters?
After the Red Dragon devours Falin, the party lacks the money and provisions needed for a conventional rescue expedition. Laios embraces monster cuisine so they can descend quickly without repeatedly returning to the surface.
Who teaches the party how to cook monsters?
Senshi, a dwarf who has lived in the dungeon for years, turns creatures into practical meals. His recipes cover monsters such as walking mushrooms, giant scorpions, and living armor.
Is Delicious in Dungeon only a comedy about food?
No. Ryoko Kui combines cooking comedy with dungeon ecology, ancient magic, political conflict, and the attempt to rescue Falin. The tone becomes considerably darker as the party approaches the dungeon's deeper levels.
How long is the completed Delicious in Dungeon manga?
The main manga is complete in 14 collected volumes. It was serialized in Enterbrain's Harta magazine before receiving Trigger's television anime adaptation.
